    Hello angry commenters! I’m Daimax, the person that built this decklist here to explain as much as i can because i know how… *opinionated* yall get when people dont play your exact 70 card list so here i am to answer all your burning questions. If i dont cover something here, feel free to ask away in the replies, just keep it civil please. I am open to a calm discussion about ratios or whatever, but i do not have the time to spare for a dick measuring contest even though i have absolute confidence that i will win.
    WHY PLAY PURE OVER KALI YUGA?
    Historically, Kali Yuga Turbo has been the most successful way to play raidraptor and its still an extremely valid way to play these birds, but there are a few key things that i feel make kali yuga the wrong pick in the current format.
    The main issue with playing Kali Yuga (or any turn skip, really) right now is that it has to justify itself. Centurion exists, and is far and away the most efficient deck at putting up a turn skip consistently and through interaction. While I am a hater when it comes to Centurion’s place on a tier list I can recognize that you need to have something to differentiate yourself from Centurion and give you an edge over that deck against the people who are ready for a tun skip, because people ARE ready to be turn skipped given how easy it is to pump out 2 level 12 synchros these days. I made a whole Medium article about my thoughts on the position of turn skips while centurion is in the picture, you’re more than welcome to give that a read for more about why I value pure’s niche more.
    I also take issue with Kali Yuga Turbo’s individual card quality. While Pure has to run some stinkers (FUZZY) the extra deck is filled to bursting with so many powerful options that theres no room for all of them. Kali Yuga has to dedicate a decent enough chunk to the extra that i feel its something of a waste unless you go first every game. I put a lot of emphasis in deckbuilding on flexibility and having cards serve multiple purposes and stuff like gagagaga magician and kali yuga himself are pretty one-note.
    Games in this format are also EXTREMELY grindy, and so Pure’s ability to keep up in a grind game is something i put a very high value on. As long as Roost doesnt get banished you will almost never run out of high value plays, and you havent lived until you’ve ground a fire king player out of a game. Obviously your grind can be cut short by S:P Little Knight, but often people will use S:P to force out your Rise RUM early to remove the looming threat of a board wipe rather than cutting you on your grind.
    Things might change down the line, and Kali Yuga might become the better positioned option in the future but as is I think Pure has more going for it.
    CARDS IM NOT PLAYING
    Ash Blossom Main - This one took a lot of time to settle on, but as good as ash is against everything its too low impact at the moment. Realistically its only good into the decks just below the top decks and firing ash against a fire deck is basically active throwing unless they open a supremely shitty hand because any 2 monsters makes hiita which makes S:P or Princess which ruins your day.
    Simorgh targets - I am playing Simorgh as a searchable Sakitama because its an extender that plays nicely with Fuzzy and Tribute’s locks, but I’ve opted not to play any targets for Simorgh’s on summon effect. This is because the targets are honestly pretty lackluster. Elborz is a double summon which can be amazing, but it’s a terrible draw. In this format every card in hand has to have an impact, and so cards like elborz are a massive risk. There’s an argument for siding Simorgh Repulsion for backrow hate and I’m not entirely against the idea, but by the time you search it your opponents backrow could already do some serious damage to your setup.
    Arc Rebellion XYZ Dragon - Arc Rebellion is a great OTK tool, but it never came up in testing, mostly because by the time i cleared the path for it to actually kill through interaction i usually ended up fuzzy locked. I opted to run a different OTK tool that plays nicer with the locks i accept instead.
    The Kashtira Engine - 3 Fenrir, 1 Riseheart, X Field Spells is the common ratio and frankly i dont think its a very good engine. Yes, it is more 1 card combos but if riseheart gets interrupted your turn ends and thats not hyperbole, and who tf isnt prepared for fenrir pass this format? The Kash cards conflict pretty hard with Bloom Vulture, Fuzzy Lanius and basically every extender except exactly Strangle Lanius, but the Kash cards also dont enable Strangle to summon itself unless everything goes through anyway so why bother? The Arsenal Falcon the kash names summon is also supremely low value because it doesn’t float into anything. All in all just not worth the deck space and MASSIVE choke point.
    Rokket Engine - Emergency Teleport is only a good card when you are playing targets anyway. Im sorry but its the truth. Much like Kash this engine adds more 1 card starters but unlike Kash the cards are far more flexible, playing nicer with your extenders and even serving AS extenders but i do not think its worth the deck space because RR isnt really hurting for what it provides. You’ll get it if you try it and open a hand with 2 rokkets and no quick launch.
    TECH CARDS
    Skull Meister - This is one that people get on my ass for a lot but I genuinely believe this is a crazy handtrap right now because of it’s sheer versatility. It’s not the highest impact card yes but it is able to fill the role of every good handtrap in almost every matchup. Against Fire King it’s a non-OPT belle. Against Labrynth it negates rollback dd crow style but it can also negate Black Goat Laughs. Against Unchained/Yubel it’s Ash Blossom. Against Voiceless Voice it’s crow, belle or ash depending on opponent’s hand. It can hit diviner grave eff or lo grave eff and it can stop Saffira from ritual summoning. Basically the only matchups its truly useless in are Kashtira and Floo.
    TLDR Meister is good because its a non opt handtrap that can play the role of basically every other handtrap in the meta depending on the matchup.
    Soul Shave Force - SSF is another preference pick, I wanted a third RUM so i could make full use of Tribute Lanius and Wise Strix’s effects, as with only 2 RUMs Tribute’s crazy second eff is completely extraneous and Wise Strix triggers on your opponents turn and whiffs. SSF is the RUM of choice because it is an INCREDIBLE proactive thrust target that makes going second infinitely easier in conjunction with Revolution Falcon. Raider’s Knight didnt stick? Kill Em! Force Strix ate a Princess pop? Kill Em! Got Nibbed? Kill Em! SSF also shines going first as a way to full combo through nibiru at awkward moments. While RR can and does play through Nib with ease, having SSF ties up the odd ends against opponents who know your deck (and you do have to know this deck if you plan on competing, sorry to be the one to break this to you) or getting nibbed when you go for an imperm safe line by summoning the second Arsenal Falcon and fishing out the missing pieces of your combo after getting hit on choke points.
    Revolution Falcon - This one is a very specific tech. Basically I wanted an archetypal rank 6 for Soul Shave Force purposes to make sticking bodies going second easier. Revolution Falcon is the one i chose because it is absolutely incredible at breaking boards and dealing massive damage. The attack reduction is a phenomenal effect, and combined with Revolution Falcon’s ability to attack the entire field you will be OTKing very easily against an exhausted field, then the pop and burn can clean up whatever’s left on your opponent’s field. You have not lived until you’ve copied the effects of Revolution Falcon with Rising Rebellion. There’s an argument to playing Air Raid instead as it can be summoned without activating any cards or effects on field, but Air Raid not being able to detach at will pushed Revolution over the edge in my eyes. In a budget build play both though because being able to Air Raid to force a negate and destroy then floating into Revolution and killing them dead is so strong.
    Swallow’s Cowrie - Honestly I’m shocked I might have to explain this one, because Cowrie is an incredible card. People looked at this card on reveal and immediately drew a comparison to Advent in Floo, and because of that I think people’s ability to evaluate this card is kind of stunted. Yes, Cowrie *can* be used to dodge imperm, and if opponent tries to imperm Tribute they get totally owned by cowrie tribute tribute add bloom tribute resolves mill fuzzy/mimicry but thats not a very high value play to set up for because realistically speaking the cards where imperm really hurts dont have a level like Raiders Knight and Wise Strix. The real reason this card is here is because it is small world on steroids. Being able to fix hands and set up specific 2-3 card combos is highly valuable in a deck like raidraptor where you only have so many 1 card starters, and being able to do so in draw phase is especially powerful. This card lets Pure live with Shifter by getting names in grave to extend with before shifter resolves, lets you resolve 1-2 searches before Droll can be live, lets you dodge targetted removal on your normal summons and makes so many weak hands much, MUCH stronger. I love Cowrie.
    I think that should be everything that might raise some eyebrows, but if you have questions feel free to ask. Raidraptor is a deck with a LOT going on and a lot of potential deckbuilding choices and that makes it close to impossible to cover everything in a single youtube video. I tried my best when deckbuilding but this list is fine tuned to my exact tastes, and yours may be different from mine in key areas so feel free to experiment with different tech options, different combo lines, etc. Cy@

      @babrad 3 місяці тому +29

      As an Arc-V enjoyer, i really liked the pure RR version instead of abusing Kali Yuga. Personally i believe LAUNCH should be banned because it only ever promoted toxic plays (Ophion, Azathot, Kali Yuga, VFD) and it limits future card design, while the deck got 2 HUGE upgrades.
      I've copied this comment to check it while testing, but I'm curious about preferring Cowrie over Swallow's Nest at 3 despite the HOPT instead of mixing them up.
      Edit: Most advocates of Kali Yuga turbo haven't experienced a Pankratops dropping on their face completely invalidating their entire turn.

    • @finaldaimax
      @finaldaimax 3 місяці тому +34

      oh yeah also a very large number of commenters have brought up that turn skipping doesnt lose to labrynth because kali yuga has a quick effect heavy storm stapled onto it. This is true! Theres a lot of nuance to turnskipping vs not, and as MBT mentioned on twitter the discussion was too long even without it. to a degree the heavy storm doesnt necessarily matter because of Labrynth playing Rollback and Black Goat now BUT even ignoring that the main reason why i opt for pure over kali yuga is just being better positioned. Again, this is covered in my article, im not of the belief that kali yuga turbo is outright bad - just not as well positioned.

    Judge here. 31:41 This is a bug. The Flamberge in the Spell/Trap Zone should not have been considered in the damage calculation of Rising Rebellion Falcon's effect, as it was not a Monster with an original ATK when it was destroyed on the field. This comes from an OCG ruling on the matter. Although this almost certainly didn't change the outcome of the duel.

      SHS historically had every extender locked behind a “for the rest of this turn” xeno. Theoretically Soulpiercer and Scarecrow could’ve combo-d off into some fairly nasty shit as early as Rise of the Duelist, but looping Soulpiercer 3-4 times doesn’t really do anything when Soulpeacemaker is the only viable target that doesn’t force you to play SHS for the rest of the turn.
      Wakaushi was obviously a mistake, but all the new free specials the deck got in the same wave of support were also horribly designed. The old xenolocks were obviously added for a reason.

I do suggest Tenpai dragons for a future tmt.

    Thank you for evolving the deck profile from just reading each card to now talking about how they actually work together. This had been one of my biggest peeves with this series for a long time, where I felt as much of the nuance in every card and its interactions got lost in the fast-paced jumping from text to text.

The only decks that can reach these absurd levels of complexity (in the form of punishing you for a wrong sequence) are Flower Cardian, Vaylantz and maybe Megalith.

    I think the deckbuilding section would benefit a lot from not reading every effect verbatim. It all turns into white noise after a while. Rather than "this is word for word Noir's effect" why not "it lets you add a raidraptor with a different level than one you control on field and can banish itself from grave to increase raidraptor levels by 1." Nobody is going to be able to pilot the deck perfectly without rereading the cards themselves, so just giving the basic purpose of the card is more serviceable to what is essentially an introduction than reading the exact text on every card you think people havent seen.
